How they support every child

SEND provision

The special educational needs coordinator works closely with parents to ensure gaps in learning are swiftly shared. They seek support from outside agencies, to help with targeted interventions. Individual learning plans are put into place. These are regularly reviewed with parents and built upon. This enables children to make excellent progress, ready for their next phase of learning.

Outdoor space

The leadership team has developed a bespoke curriculum to flow throughout the nursery to maximise indoor and outdoor play. Children have ample opportunities to develop their physical skills, indoors and outdoors, practising jumping and balancing skills in the large outdoor area.

Fantastic nursery that my son still talks about now! 3 happy years here, the staff went above and beyond for us after a family illness. They also handled the COVID period with much more grace than other settings. My son thrived under their care and really helped shape the confident boy he is, can't recommend them enough ❤️

If you want the best care for your child then send them to Mary P's. My daughter has gone since 5 months old and I couldn't wish for her to be in safer hands. She has come on leaps and bounds, very confident and mixes well with other children.
